The Bottom Line The Samsung SCX-4100 is an economic choice for small-job printing, copying, and scanning, but Mac users or those who need to fax must look elsewhere. With low print costs, great print quality, and decent speeds, the Samsung SCX-4200 is a no-brainer for a home office or very small office on a budget. The HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless makes a convincing inkjet argument for offices with a high volume of prints. With a function touch screen, multiple networking options, and an astoundingly fast print speed, it makes perfect sense to give this workhorse an Editors' Choice award. The Epson Stylus NX515 is a capable machine that will improve the efficiency of any office or work-at-home setup. Not only is it a lightning-fast all-in-one, but it also has a broader range of features than most other $150 AIOs. As long as you don't need a full creative software suite, the Epson Stylus NX515 will make a dependable sidekick to your computer. This multifunction suffices for a low-volume small or home office, but look elsewhere for fax or heavy-duty copying features.
